Yeah Mike D, this one is one of my favorite dubbings for sows. It’s killer.

Basically the hackle represents the legs as they flail in the water when they get caught in the current or if they are trying to swim. Soft hackles represent them well.

Scott, those are look’n good! I’ve always used a soft hackle for a sow imitation but I dont really understand why they imitate them?

Wow, what a great capture. I could say it is wonderful when using this kind of techniques. The camera also has a great help to make the photo perfect.

Tube Fly
Golden Barbels Fish Eyes w/red eyes
Black Magnum Rabbit Strip
Olive Magnum Rabbit Strip
Two strands of holographic tinsel on each side
One clump of black Raccoon Fur for throat
Black Laser Dubbing for the head, brushed out.

I tie the Laser Dubbing in after everything else is tied in. I leave about a 1/4 of space in behind the eye for the Laser Dubbing. I tie it in like you would for a wool head, in clumps. Instead of trimming it though, I brush it out to make all nice an furry.

Hope that helps.

Great looking streamer!! Would you mind sending me the material list? How&when do you tie on the laser dubbing?
